From Bhaskar and Smita:
This memorial website has been created in memory of our beloved Ba, Lakshmeeben Vithalbhai Patel, 92 years old , born on December 5, 1927 and passed away peacefully at home in Australia on February 16, 2020.
We want to convey our deep appreciation for the heartfelt thoughts and condolences we have received from near and afar, as well as the memories of Lakshmeeben you have shared on this site... we are truly touched!
Ba’s life is captured on this website in an autobiographical letter she had written in 2016, and a photo gallery with a slide show mode which ends with a parting poem that conveys her comforting sentiments to Smita and me.
We will all collectively remember this much respected, multi-talented, loving and much loved inspirational leader / teacher / mentor forever. Her legacy will live on!
Om Shanti Shanti Shantih!
